Sliding Display UI for AOA Antenna Directivity Changes
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The directivity of an AOA-based antenna in an electronic device with a flexible display changes disadvantageously when the screen area is expanded or retracted via sliding, affecting the interworking with external devices during sharing operations.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device and method that display a user interface related to sharing operations, adapting to changes in AOA-based antenna directivity due to sliding of the flexible display.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Area of moving object
If the flexible display is extended or retracted via sliding operation, then the screen area is increased or reduced, but the directivity of the AOA-based antenna changes disadvantageously
Solution Approach 1:
The antenna directivity information is dynamically updated based on the sliding operation state. When the flexible display is extended or retracted, the system detects the change in antenna directivity and adjusts the user interface display accordingly, ensuring that the sharing operation interface remains functional and user-friendly despite the physical configuration changes.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the AOA-based antenna directivity changes during sliding operation, then the antenna configuration adapts to the flexible display state, but the interworking with external devices during sharing operations is affected
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements a feedback mechanism where the controller continuously monitors the sliding operation state and the resulting antenna directivity changes. Based on this feedback, the controller adjusts the user interface display to maintain effective device interworking during sharing operations, ensuring that users can still interact with external devices seamlessly despite the changing antenna configuration.

AI summary
An electronic device includes a display module including a basic screen that is alway s exposed to the outside and an extended screen that is exposed according to a chang e in the state of the electronic device; an AOA (angle of arrive) antenna disposed in the extended screen; a communication circuitry configured to receive or transmit a sig nal from or to the AOA antenna; and a processor configured to determine a location with an external electronic device based on information received from the communicat ion circuitry, wherein the processor is configured to execute a sharing operation with the external electronic device, identify a first state or second state of the electronic d evice, perform a first positioning operation for the external electronic device when the first state is identified, and display a sharing interface according to the first positioni ng operation on the display module.
